Hydroponics is a high-tech cultivation method, also known as vertical or horizontal farming. Plants such as soft leafy vegetables and green herbs are grown on water in a closed system. Plants grow on floats or in a gutter system; DFT or NFT systems. The Growcoon for hydroponics helps maximise crop yields, while using as little substrate as possible. This makes it more sustainable, and minimises the risk of contamination in the system.
